You guys could've choosen ANY other bullnose and done a bang up job in half the time with half the stress IMHO.

@DadandSonDIY4 жыл бұрын
We wanted the stairs to match the wood flooring in the basement exactly, and we felt the only way to do that was to use the same wood, which would need support (the pre-existing tread). Most contractors do this same process while installing wood on stairs, with the exception of the square bullnose (that's custom, though maybe some would be willing to do that).

The only thing I would have considered is the bottom riser keeping it the same height as all the other risers therefore installing it first before the landing. That way to the eye they all match up equally. Hope that makes sense LOL 🙂

We were concerned about that at first too. However, it really isn't noticeable unless you go up and measure it with a tape measure.
@JonEmerson2 жыл бұрын
I have not understood the attraction to treads butting up against risers when you can avoid it. (Though I think most pro's do it this way. Certainly the jig you used, that's how most people do it, and they don't usually account for riser width.) You usually look down on stairs. In my view, it's better if the risers cover the treads, so you can't see into the seams. But yes this means alternating between working on risers and treads, which is probably why people don't do it. It's slower.

By far this is one of the best DIY video I have seen, got few questions. how long did the stairs project take? I am thinking of installing Laminate does it need gluing? My townhouse is 6 years old how do I make sure that the stairs match with how it’s shown in the video? I see that the carpet at the nose slants to the bottom of the stair. Should I rip the carpet and check? What is your opinion on Laminate cap a thread?

Glad you enjoyed the video! Let me try to address all of your questions. 1. The project took a while to plan out, but we were able to complete it within a week. 2. Yes, you will still need to adhere your laminate flooring to the subfloor. 3. Go for it! Ripping out the carpet is the first step. 4. Not 100% sure what you mean here.

You should have purchased solid wood and rounded the edges and stain the hard wood to match.... even tho I appreciate your effort. It was enjoyable to watch the end result will not reflect all your good effort, mainly because it will be unstable in 1mo or so. Its just a bad design because it will not be able to sustain the weight thats applied daily. In the end you will repeat all those steps for every step or you will start over with real wood and just round the edges But I do like your enthusiasm. Great video.

Amazing job guys.. I like the idea of the bull nozing, I learned from you something new.. I just have a question, at the floor section - not the stairs - why you used Roberts glue? I mean is it better or just staples or nails?
@DadandSonDIY3 жыл бұрын
Gluing and nailing/stapling give nearly identical results, and are both techniques used by professionals. However, nailing/stapling takes a lot of room, due to the flooring nail gun which can't be used close to walls. While this isn't an issue for larger projects, it made more sense for us to glue down the boards on our small landing in the middle of the stairs.

is there a reason you cut the existing noses? I watched some other videos and they left the noses and then made the cuts in their material to wrap around the existing noses. Just wondering what the pros and cons of doing it each way are.
@DadandSonDIY3 жыл бұрын
You will get a more secure fit removing the preexisting bullnoses, letting you customize the height of the new bullnose. It's also arguably less work. However, you may want to make the cuts on your materials instead if you don't have a good way to remove the existing bullnoses.

This might be a dumb question but do you need underlayment when using laminate on stairs or does the Glue work as a moisture barrier?
@DadandSonDIY3 жыл бұрын
This is definitely not a dumb question. The engineered wood that we used (with a wooden top veneer, not laminate) was installed on a wood subfloor so we didn't need a moisture barrier. If you are applying the flooring on concrete you might need a different adhesive than we used, depending on your floor's moisture level.

@@jodigr It would depend on the material used underneath the top layer. If that is plywood or MDF, like ours, the process should be fine. However, if your boards are made entirely out of plastic, you might need different tools to cut and glue them. Also, there might be a challenge staining the rounded edges.
